I am 16 and I have a boyfriend who is 22. My mom has put a restaining order against him but I still go see him. I don't believe it is right to choose who your children are dating and the age should not matter. I believe that people young or old should have the right to choose who they want to be with. No matter what. The parents don't know what kind of person we want to be with so why should they want to choose.

Im a 14 year old freshman, and i noticed that my friend a 19 year old
seinor liked me. just recently a few days after me and my bf broke
up. he expressed an intrest to be more than friends, by acting as if
i was his gf. I am still best friends with my X, and i know that him
and my parents and would think that it was wrong for us to date. I
dont want to break the law or upset anyone, but i think that i might
like him more than just a friend, but not enough to be his gf and
break the law. I personaly know that no 14 year old, including myself
is old enough to be in a bf/gf relati

He supports me in everything that I do. He has a son an dI love him as well. Our intresest is the same and he respects me because he noticed that he was about to loose me if would of kept cheating. We've been together sence I was 15 and he was 21. I 'm not fast because he waited until I was ready, and I've matured and learned to make wise decisions, and he helps.
